Together AI provides access to leading open-source models including Llama, DeepSeek, Kimi, and more through a unified API.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Provider | together |
| Auth | TOGETHER_API_KEY |
| API | OpenAI-compatible |
| Base URL | https://api.together.xyz/v1 |
Getting started
Get an API key
Create an API key at
[api.together.ai/settings/api-keys](https://api.together.ai/settings/api-keys).
Run onboarding
```bash
genesis onboard --auth-choice together-api-key
```
Set a default model
```json5
{
agents: {
defaults: {
model: { primary: "together/moonshotai/Kimi-K2.5" },
},
},
}
```
Non-interactive example
genesis onboard --non-interactive \
--mode local \
--auth-choice together-api-key \
--together-api-key "$TOGETHER_API_KEY"
The onboarding preset sets `together/moonshotai/Kimi-K2.5` as the default
model.

Video generation
The bundled together plugin also registers video generation through the
shared video_generate tool.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Default video model | together/Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B |
| Modes | text-to-video, single-image reference |
| Supported parameters | aspectRatio, resolution |
To use Together as the default video provider:
{
agents: {
defaults: {
videoGenerationModel: {
primary: "together/Wan-AI/Wan2.2-T2V-A14B",
},
},
},
}
See [Video Generation](/tools/video-generation) for the shared tool parameters,
provider selection, and failover behavior.
Environment note
If the Gateway runs as a daemon (launchd/systemd), make sure
`TOGETHER_API_KEY` is available to that process (for example, in
`~/.genesis/.env` or via `env.shellEnv`).
<div class="callout warning">
Keys set only in your interactive shell are not visible to daemon-managed
gateway processes. Use `~/.genesis/.env` or `env.shellEnv` config for
persistent availability.
</div>
Troubleshooting
- Verify your key works: `genesis models list --provider together`
- If models are not appearing, confirm the API key is set in the correct
environment for your Gateway process.
- Model refs use the form `together/<model-id>`.
